HVAC System (Diagnostics): General Description: Caution

  1. Never connect the battery in reverse polarity.
    • Doing so may immediately damage the A/C control panel.
  2. Do not disconnect the battery terminals while the engine is running.

    A large counter electromotive force will be generated in the generator, and this voltage may damage electronic parts such as A/C control panel etc.

  3. Before disconnecting the connectors of sensors and the A/C control panel, be sure to turn off the ignition switch.
    • A/C control panel may be damaged.
  4. Every A/C-related part is a precision part. Do not drop them.
  5. Airbag system harness is routed near the A/C control panel and junction box.
    CAUTION:
    • Do not use electrical test equipment on the airbag system harness and connector.
    • Be careful not to damage the airbag system harness when servicing the A/C control panel and junction box.
